The event running from 11am to 4.30pm on Wednesday 27th August and 10.30am to 4.30pm on Thursday 28th August, promises a day full of farm-themed games and activities for the whole family to enjoy together.

The Heptathlon is a free drop-in activity, but children must be accompanied by an adult at all times.

Organisers remind attendees that while the event is a free drop-in activity, all children must be accompanied by an adult at all times.

If you miss out on the Farmyard fun this week, there is a Wallace and Gromit exhibition coming to the Harris Museum when it relaunches at the end of September where you can expect to see all your favourite Aardman characters.
